Taking A Cue From Kanye West's Sneakers

Sneak peak look into the wild world of Kanye West's sneakers.

Running across stage for an energetic two hour set-list, Kanye started out in a crisp and clean pair of Nike dunks with laces loose in grey and magenta. I love a classic high top dunk and the colors were fresh. When opening act Kid Cudi took the stage, I was excited about his classic Vans choice. A charcoal color, they looked West Coast cool with his skinny jeans and blazer look. Kanyes band also sported Vans with their all-white outfits.

For the final song, while ballerinas graced the stage barefoot to "Runaway," Kanye took it to another level with red leather Vuitton hi-tops, paired with a red Balmain zippered pants and a blazer. Though I stuck to red Converse chucks that night I was inspired by the stage’s sneaker invasion and picked out my favorite 15 pairs for you to check out for back-to-school. A mix of old school classics and bright and bold picks youre sure to be inspired too.
